At the end of the last millenium there were two things immediately indicating that you are a stylish nerd - metal band t-shirts and custom desktop icons. This week we are going to make the latter.
Draw a custom set of minimum nine, 32x32 icons for a 90's/00's desktop. The list of mandatory icons includes:
1) My Computer.
2) Recycle Bin (empty).
3) Recycle Bin (full).
4) Inbox/ mailbox/ e-mail client app (all the envelope stuff).
5) Internet/ network/ browser (like an earth planet icon, but custom safari or mozilla icons do count).
6) At least one drive (any storage device modern or retro).
7) At lealst one folder (clean or special one like system folder, font folder, printer folder...).
8) At least one file (txt, doc, avi, bmp, font, wav...).
9) At least one system integral app (like notepad, paintbrush, minesweeper, calculator...).
You can make more than that but no duplicates. For example, separate icons for two different browsers are allowed, but not two different icons for the same browser.
The icon set have to be cohesive styllistically or thematically. If you choose isometric, handdrawn or made out of stone, than all icons have to follow that choice. If you choose a theme like Star Wars than it will not be enough to make a Death Star as your internet planet icon. You will have to make all of the icons Star Wars related or stylised, and still somehow make what they represent readable.
Canvas Size - Min 100x100.
Colors - Unrestricted.
Transparency - Required (to separate the icons).
Animation - No.
